PLANS FOR STUDENTS'
BUILDING DISCUSSED
Retiring President of Undergrad.
Emphasizes Varsity Dramatics
and Curriculum Committee
NEXT YEAR TO TEST CHANGES
UNDERGRADUATE ASSOCIATION ELECTS A. JOHNSTON
PRESIDENT FOR COMING YEAR
Angela Johnston, '26, was elected president of the Undergraduate Asso-
ciation at a meeting of the Association last Wednesday. Miss Johnston was
Freshman member of the Self-Governnsent Board and stage manager of �
Freshman show; during Sophomore year she served as song-mistress of her
class and member of the Business Committee of May Day. This year she
has been secretary of 1926, stage manager of Junior play, and secretary of
the Undergraduate Association.
At a meeting of the Undergraduate As-
sociation on Wednesday, April 15, at
Seven-thirty, in Taylor Hall, A. Johnston,
'�.'(>, was elected president of the Associa-
tion for the coming year. Plans for the
Students' Building were discussed; it will
include an auditorium or auditoriums
with a capacity of 000 or 1500, rooms for
acenery and costumes, and rooms for the
associations and periodicals, about which
the presidents arc now being consulted.
I.. Barber. '25, retiring president, sub-
mitted her report, in which she described
the work of the Association during the
past year.
Of the legislature, she said that "first,
it guaranteed a quorum, and secondly, it
insured a wider and more intelligent^
knowledge of the business at hand."
"Within the Association." she. went on,
"other important changes have been
made. First and foremost is the new
position of the Curriculum Committee.
Last fall it became apparent' that the
committee must come to some sort of an
agreement with the faculty or dissolve.
President Park said that the Faculty
Curriculum Committee would probably
be very glad to have a joint meeting to
discuss the situation. This meeting was
held early in the second semester with
the following results which are embodied
in the constitution of the committee:
"The function of the Curriculum Com-
mittee shall be to formulate its own
opinions and to obtain information upon
college opinion concerning the college
opinion at the specific request of the
faculty.
"Reports handed in to the faculty shall
state separately the vote of each class and
llie nrtC of the committee. In case of a
di\is:on of opinion in the committee, the
i asses of the voters shall be specified.
"The committee shall consist of four
-�seniors, four Juniors, three Sophomores
and two Freshmen, from which at least
three Juniors, two Sophomores, and one
Freshman must be appointed for the fol-
lowing year.

For Standing Higb Jump
The first of thiritwo track meets was
held in a leisurely' and pleasant fashion
on Saturday. April the eighteenth, �t ten
o'clock.
�*
A nervous crowd of runners and jump-
ers were seen gathered together in knots
before the events, which were run off
rapidly, although no score was an-
nounced. The meet opened with the fifty-
yard dash, in which S. Anderson, '25; B.

for first place with 6.4 seconds, while E.
Winchester. '27, with CO seconds and G.
Leewhz with 7 seconds won second and
third places, respectively.
The running high jump which fol-
lowed was won by M. Miller. '28, who
was remarkable for her easy grace and
good form in clearing the bar even at
4 ft. T/2 in-, where she at last went out.
Second place was won by S. JBjfcAdoo,
'26. who cleared 4 ft. 6 in., jumping with
little apparent effort, while S. AndeWon,
'25, came third, leaping in pretty form
over the jump, but finally missed at 4 ft.
5 in., taking off too soon.

Lists have been posted upon the 6. A.

those girls may sign who arc interested
in the Annual Student Conference to be
held at Haglcsmcre. I'a., from June l'J-29.
To this conference. Bryn Mawr will
send a delegation led by W. Dodd. '26,
President of the Christian Association.
Bryn Mawr has for many years sent
girls to the Silver Bay branch of this
conference. C. A. feels that this confer-
ence will be every bit as interesting as
Silver Bay.
A chance to meet and talk with many
different types of people from other col-
leges, a chance to hear picked speakers
from all over the country�this is what
the Eaglesmerc conference is expected to
be.
Though it includes chiefly smaller col-
leges (not Smith and Vassar). still it has
the same good speakers as Silver Bay.
Dr. Fosdick, Dr. Coffin and Dr. Gilkey
are among the men who have given eve
ning talks in the past.

Pupils Of Mr. Terrone Meet, With
Defeat For Less Experienced
1926 REACHES FINALS
l'J26's first tennis team has reached
the finals by defeating 1928 in the second
series of matches.
Subbing for. C. Dcnison. '26, W. Dodd,
'26, defeated M. Hopkinson, '28, in a long,
cautious, hard-fought but rather unin-
teresting match with the score of 3-6, 6-4,
11-9.
� 1927-25 ^
Having won the first round of matches
and lost the second, mill's first team tied
with 1925. ii
C. Remak, '25, downed B. Pitney, *27,
last Saturday by a score of 6-3; 1-6, 6-4.
Both players were doing as well as they
knew how. C. Rcmak's superior endur-
ance and infallible steadiness in the end
overcame B. Pitney's slightly greater
speed and placing.
Serving with her whole strength and
drivmg home many pretty shots, M.
Brown, '25. again defeated M. Hand, '27,
whose form was nevertheless excellent.
E. Boross, '25, senior captain, though
again defeated decisively by M. L. Jones,
'27, showed mafked improvement in her
game.
In Bryn Mawr's first fencing match,
which took place last Thursday evening.
the honors went to the University of
Pennsylvania with a winning score of 10
to 6. The Pennsylvania _team showed
better" offensive work, and in the first
few matches put Bryn Mawr altogether
on the defensive. Towards the end Bryn
Mawr gained confidence and won six
matches in close succession. The Bryn
Mawr team was more alert than the Penn-
sylvania girls, out showed a decided lack
of experience. E. Millspaugh, '26. starred
for Bryn Mawr, winning three out of four
matches.
Both teams had been previously
coached by Mr. Leonardo Terrone, so the
contest was more a matter of practice
than preparatory instruction. The judges
were Mr. B. Simpson, Secretary of the
Eastern Pennsylvania division of the
Amateur Fencing League of America, and
Miss E. Page, a Bryn Mawr graduate
who has won several fencing honors.
The teams were as follows:
Pennsylvania: J: Masland r<captain), C.
Schell. H. McLaughlin, M. Clair.
Bryn Mawr: E. Millspaugh, '26 (cap-
tain); E. Winchester, '27; D. Irwin, '27;

Many of those who say the Varsity pro
ducilon <>f Ttti School jor Scandal last
Friday and .Saturday wailed in particular
for an answer to the question "Arc Varsity
Dramatics enough better than class plays
to warrant the supplanting of the latter?"
To ouc observer at least the answer seemed
obviously lo he in the affirmative, and for
this reason. We are used to charming set-
tings in our class plays, to effective cos-
tumes, and to several good actors in each
cast, but we have not been accustomed to
seeing plays in which the minor roles were
really ably sustained, in which consequently
the total effect was satisfactory. In this
our most recent Bryn Mawr production,
however, the general level of the acting was
so high that one could not but feel that
the day of the class play had gone forever.
One finds it difficult to comment sepa-
rately upon the single qualities of our School
for Scandal� its costuming, scenery, music
�because of the unusual harmony of the
whole. But even the layman could not In-
unaware of the skill which went to the
achieving of this harmony�the subtlety with
which the colors of costume and'"setting
were blended, the. charm of the musical
entries ami exits, the delicacy of the pan-
tomime by which the awkwardness of tjie
usual amateur curtains was avoided.
To this sophisticated, gaily-colored world.
�the east of the School for Scandal seemed
completely attuned. I.ady Teazle as played
by Miss White had quite shaken off her
country manners, bad acquired indeed some-
thing of the tension and nervousness one
recognizes as part of city life. While she*
lacked the genuine higb spirits which alone
can excuse her verbal cruelties to Sir
Peter, her vivacity of expression and gesture
was charming. In the scandal scene, Lady
leazle's difficult part was particularly well
sustained, and one felt something of the
real zest of the scandal-mongering little*
grande-dame in the gaiety qf her malice
and the -whole-heartedness of her laughter.
Sir Peter, played by Miss Petrasch, was a
gentler, less irritable old man than one had
